While Scuba Diving, Jennifer Encountered the Famous Triplet Brothers ~ Terry, Thomas & Tony



This week has been kind of hectic and I am happy to get this collage off!

I own Volume One of The Encyclopedia of Photography and have used bits and pieces of it in numerous collages.  I prefer working with images that are printed on matte versus glossy stock and although the volume contains some glossy images the bulk of the book is printed in black & white on matte paper.

  1. Nice composition, and they all four look like they're having fun!

  2. I share you preference for matte images, CC, why do we feel this way, I wonder? Enjoyed the Famous Triplet Brothers, give us more!

    2. Hmmm...I prefer glossy images because they express more detail—that is, the texture of the paper doesn't interfere with the fine resolution of the image.

    3. I think I like matte images pasted to matte paper because there is less chance of a wrinkle developing. After I complete a collage I put a sheet of acetate on top of it and then place three very heavy books on top of both. I let them sit at least 24 hours this way. Just something I do.
